Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received mixed reviews regarding its healthcare services. Positive remarks highlight the staff's kindness and exceptional care, particularly emphasizing the nursing care in the Med/Surge department as unparalleled. Reviewers appreciate the staff's efforts to go above and beyond, such as in the case of a heart attack patient who credited the hospital for saving their life thanks to the prompt and efficient preparation for a Life Flight. Such testimonials underscore the commitment of the healthcare and support staff to provide critical and timely medical interventions.
However, there are concerns regarding the accuracy of diagnostic services and the speed of service delivery. One reviewer shared a troubling experience where a significant injury was initially overlooked, only to be correctly diagnosed elsewhere after a delay. This instance suggests a gap in the diagnostic accuracy that had a direct impact on the patient's health outcome. Despite these concerns, the kindness and dedication of the staff are consistently recognized. Yet, the apparent inconsistencies in service quality and response times at night have led to dissatisfaction among some recipients of care, overshadowing the otherwise positive experiences shared by others.
